Recently it has been announced that Manchester United will be selling Paul Pogba in January and it will be a big shock for all Manchester United fans. As per some reports, Pogba's next destination could be Barcelona. But till the time he is there at the club, Paul Pogba’s form will be quite critical for Manchester United as the 25-year-old is the core of Manchester United’s forward line.

According to some reports, there was a fall out between Pogba and Jose Mourinho as the latter felt that perhaps Pogba wasn’t committed towards his team, but Manchester United later clarified everything was fine between them. The Frenchman played a key role for France in the recently concluded World Cup and will be expected to replicate the same performances.

The midfielder has shown his class with his penetrative runs and his ability to score from unusual positions. Pogba has been a constant threat to any opponent inside the box because of his brilliant finishes. His electric counter-attacks can outclass any opposition combined with his creative moves. Paul Pogba is like a glue that binds the midfield with the forward line.

Although Pogba could only score 6 goals in the last season in 27 Premier League games the former Juventus FC player contributed with 10 assists. In the ongoing season, Pogba has scored 2 goals in 4 games. Manchester United will sorely miss the services of the playmaker.
